We can also extend disp-step-syscall.exp to test GDBserver step over
breakpoint on syscall instruction. That is, we set a breakpoint
with a false condition on syscall instruction, so that GDBserver will
step over it.
This test triggers a GDBserver internal error, which can be fixed by
this series.
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: fork: break cond on target: break on syscall insns
continue^M
Continuing.^M
Remote connection closed^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: fork: break cond on target: continue to fork again
In GDBserver, there is an internal error,
/home/yao/SourceCode/gnu/gdb/git/gdb/gdbserver/linux-low.c:1922: A problem internal to GDBserver has been detected.
unsuspend LWP 25554, suspended=-1
the simplified reproducer is like,
$ ./gdb ./testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/disp-step-syscall/disp-step-fork
(gdb) b main
(gdb) c
(gdb) disassemble fork // in order to find the address of insn 'syscall'
....
0x00007ffff7ad6023 <+179>: syscall
(gdb) b *0x00007ffff7ad6023 if main == 0
(gdb) c
gdb/testsuite:
2016-02-19 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* gdb.base/disp-step-fork.c (main): Increase loop boundary.
* gdb.base/disp-step-vfork.c (main): Likewise.
* gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp (disp_step_cross_syscall): Test
breakpoint condition evaluated on the target side.
